Endless Laughter of People

On the bank of River Taedong in Pyongyang, famous for its beautiful scenery, there is the Munsu Water Park frequented by people of all ages and both sexes even in midwinter, to say nothing of the hottest period of midsummer.

It was built in October 2013 within a short period of eight months on a large area of 109 000㎡ as a people’s recreation center. It is composed of an outdoor section with various water slides and pools, a complex of indoor swimming pools, a functional rehabilitation clinic, a gym, and a complete suite of leisure facilities necessary for people to enjoy and rest in the water throughout the year.

More than 40 thousand people in every walk of life are said to have come here in the first month after the completion of the water park. One can well imagine from it how many people could have fully enjoyed happy moments in the water park so far.

The park, always full of people’s laughter, has also vividly recorded the history of dedication to people by the respected General Secretary.

The respected General Secretary came up with the world-class water park plan and decided on the construction site. He gave specific instructions concerning the formation of construction forces, necessary equipment, material and fund. Making frequent visits to the construction site, he acquainted himself with the construction progress and designs in detail and gave detailed guidance on the construction to be completed at the highest level and in the best quality.

During these days he left traces of love and devotion as he gave instructions on 113 miniatures of the water park and visited the construction site even in sweltering midsummer heat at midnight when the people were sound asleep or at daybreak. He also visited the completed water park two days before inaugural ceremony to make sure nothing is to be desired.

It was built in the warm love of the respected General Secretary who devoted such great efforts to a moment’s joy of the people. Today it is full of endless happy laughter of the working people, schoolchildren and students who spend happy time absorbed in the water world, being unaware of the passage of time.

So foreign visitors to the water park expressed their admiration and said as follows: It is very impressive to see happy faces of ordinary working people enjoying socialist civilization at modern service centers for the masses. The Workers’ Party of Korea and the DPRK government regard it as their supreme principle of activities to provide the working people with happy and affluent life and take all measures to bring to working people more social benefits. The DPRK is a grand flower garden of prioritizing and loving the people that pursues the state policy of ensuring human rights to the full.

The Munsu Water Park will hand down the history of ardent love for people by the respected General Secretary who wishes to give our people all the happiness in the world. And it will always be filled with people’s laughter.
